Brandon Peterson — It’s Clobberin’ Time

Commission, 2010

Continuing our celebration of the 60th anniversary of the debut of Fantastic Four #1. (August 8, 1961)

How many brick walls has the Thing crashed through? That’s not some sort of rhetorical question — I have no idea what the answer is.

I do know, when I saw this cool commission, it reminded me in high concept (minus the silly tank top) of John Byrne’s great cover of the ever-lovin’ Thing’s return in Fantastic Four #274.

The Thing. Breaking through a wall. And smoking a cigar.

Works for me.

Nuff said.
